Report: Trump 'getting more and more fed up with Tillerson'

The relationship between President Trump and Secretary of State Rex Tillerson has seemed rocky for some time, and it appears tensions continue to escalate.

Axios reported Sunday, citing inside officials, "Trump is getting more and more fed up with Tillerson."

As an instance of Trump’s growing frustration, the publication notes, "one time recently, after Trump had returned from a meeting on Afghanistan, a source recalled Trump saying, ‘Rex just doesn’t get it, he’s totally establishment in his thinking.'"

Tillerson said, "I don’t believe anyone doubts the American people’s values or the commitment of the American government, or the government’s agencies to advancing those values and defending those values."
